Team it up with The Forgotten Man: A New History of the Great Depression
They aren't NAZIS. We aren't NAZIS. Anyone who buys into this is an idiot. Anybody who gives it a smidgen of serious discussion (hey Sasha) is an idiot - or someone who just likes to fight.
Very common with females...
Actually study what National Socialism in Germany was about. Part pagan cult, part ugly degenerate perversion, part deadly efficient organization... A huge part pure stupidity.
Hitler was an idiot. He won the biggest lottery prize ever and then ran with it. After the initial successes it all fell apart. He would have never gotten anywhere without a hard core of professionals (See Ernst Rohm)
And the dumb cocksucker killed all of them off to consolidate power - much as Stalin had.
The NAZI state died before it got going - 6/30/34. It was just a matter of time for the mistakes to accumulate and drag it down.
Oh, we all know that movements based on socialism all fall into ruin sooner than later, sport. We're just hoping to strangle this one in its crib and avoid the 7-figure body count that usually accompanies them.
Study history. "Seven figure body counts" are part of human nature. And none of the collectivist philosophies / movements differ significantly from the others.
Don't go along with this Nazi bullshit. When you do you play on their field. Socialists - including National Socialists -
ALL OF THEM are collectivist and trying to distinguish them is stupid because the distinctions lack differences. All collectivism is the same: all hail to the group and the individual can go to hell.
And they are all primitive. Collectivism is the original human political organization. From the family to the tribe to Ur to Babylon to Mao to Mandami they are all throwbacks.
Modern America is the only historical or current example of a political system that values, elevates, or defends the individual at all, and MAGA is its bastion.
We are the exception. They are the rule. We are simply more important and valuable.
And if it takes a high body count to defend that, well, watering the tree of liberty is an important chore...
I have been saying something similar about these national socialists. All these countries throughout history have basically done the same thing in their ideology of political collectivism. People argue slight differences with names, but in the end they are all communists. It’s about control, huge government power, and brainwashing the citizens how to think. The democrats wrote a book on this, as they are the biggest crime family of all. Plus, they are all related through blood or marriage. The left gave their playbook to the mafia, and to Nazi Germany. However, the mafia respects women and children, whereas the democrats just sell them to cartels.
Religion is something dictated by our genetics. Somewhere in our still un-elucidated pile of stuff are sequences that dictate we will be collective - it is a survival imperative. The family is the first collective. Then the tribe. About then the instinct kicks in because the family bonding instincts don't extend far. It becomes necessary to create a new unifier so we build images that can neither be proven or disproven. They simply hold the tribe together and form the basis for traditions and an understanding of the real world that is in fact too complex for anyone - us included - to grasp. This "narrative" forms the rock that anchors all.
As far back as you can go you find things that either suggest or outright proclaim the existence of deities, an origin history, and - Sasha is right - heroes. There are always heroes.
Once these establishments become successful and grow past the grubbing stage - once people move beyond survival - differentiation and specialization emerge, a priestly class develops, and they become rulers. They manage the narrative, speak for the deities, keep what collected knowledge the group has...
The collective is the basic form. Any atavistic shift must be a shift "back" towards the collective.
Never forget separation of church and state in unique to Modern America. And we take it further today than was intended in 1789.
But while the Age of Reason offered alternate structures for understanding it did not give us new genes. Most people are religious. And when I say most I would go so far as to say that is all women and almost all men.
A lot of people in that cohort would argue this but look closer. I am a scientist. I have lost track of how many "scientists" have seen make science into a religion. You can see it if you look carefully. Are they driven by data or belief? If you have turned your science into something you cannot drop like a hot rock when the data goes sideways, then it is a religion to you. It is no longer just a tool.
This plastic thing is everywhere. When commies call religion the opiate of the masses they mean the traditional faiths. They refuse to see their own tenets - those things they will not question - are just as unprovable and unfalsifiable as Yahweh or Allah. And heretics among the communists are treated at least as harshly as they are in an ancient religion.
And all the other flavors of collectivism follow the pattern. Fascism & National Socialism are just communistic organizations arranged around narrow groups like like nations or ethnicities that aim to include some and exclude others. On the other hand the goal of Communism - at least in theory - is to expand to a universal purview...
At this point recall the original meaning of the word "catholic:" Universal.
Progressivism is no different. Look at the damned we believe yard signs. Look at the blind faith in "science" by people who have no inkling what it is. Ask a good progressive to explain how diversity is a good. Argue that it is neither intrinsically good or bad.
Pack a lunch you are in for a fight.
Of course the American "rightwing" is as a rule deeply religious usually in a traditonal judeo-christian vein. But they mostly tend to follow a tradition - or at least give lipservice to a tradition - that faith is a private matter separate from law or commerce. You can argue they make an icon of religious stature out of things like the Bill of Rights. We hold these truths to be self evident is an expression of an idea that cannot and should not be proven or disproven. It simply is - a matter of faith.
The separation isn't a separation so much as an accommodation that promotes stability. It was a compromise that got around the many religions in the original colonies.
And while all this has a peaceful veneer remember it has been part of brutal wars. The battle hymn of the republic is an invocation simultaneously to god and slaughter. It can be argued that today's various (religious) factions bred by America are peaceful by intent it has to be seen this is untested. The reality is they don't have to be violent because a rough balance of power exists.
Don't think for a minute these factions aren't capable of invoking the collective and sending their citizens off to a glorious slaughter. There will always be the priestly who can hector the lowly - the young surplus men - into dying for the old man's cause, for god or country or Mao or Marx or Hitler... The fatherland calls. The motherland calls.
The collective requires your sacrifice because you are unimportant, puny individual. Get in line.
What's on the line ultimately are individuals and their liberty and dignity. Those things are the really self evidently rare and precious "jewels" of mankind. Imperfect though it all is, it is as good as it gets.
If you run into someone who rags on the constitution, or insults the founders, slap the shit out of them. Slap the stupid out of them. They came up with the best bad ideas anyone ever had. Lose that there may not be anything left to defend.
A long time ago on a lost blog, I wrote about the difference between Daddy Government and Mommy Government. Daddy Government goes to war, stands for freedom, defends the homeland. Mommy Government forgives transgressions, softens rules and prevents the survival of the fittest from shaping the nation. In case you haven't figured it out, Mommy Government via the Democrats has held sway for awhile now. Now that Daddy Government has gotten tired of dealing with unexplained spending and out of control children, Mommy and Daddy are fighting. That's the crux of this. Mommy Government needs Xanax and Daddy Government needs a hobby.
You can put it that way as a short and shallow explanation. Now interpret that within the 4 turnings. Weak men make hard times which make strong men which make good times which make weak men...
Now granted in the proper English "men" means humans but it is also true that men are in fact the makers and creators and women make babies. The further we get away from that the more in trouble we are.
There is a reason there are no modern matriarchies. They always fail. They are always a symptom of decline.
Smug "liberals" used to claim Europe leads the west (culturally and civilizationally)
If so we are fucked, because Europe is circling the drain. I maintain the reason is that so many men died in WWII that the next generations were entirely raised by women, resulting in psycho females and sullen, pussywhipped males. As a group they have the worst possible combination of traits, and cannot make good decisions. Look at Germany today if you need examples.
Mommy government started with the ruin of our schools. That is also where you get the ruined kids. Women run the system and they have destroyed it. My last gig before retiring was in ed - college, sciences. The students we got from our schools contained a huge cohort of walking disasters. All our best came from overseas - Asia, from India to the pacific rim. And who is developing cutting edge tech these days? They didn't go to elementary school in Cleveland...
Mommy needs to get her ass back into the home and breed for the cause. Daddy needs to grow some balls, quit whining, and work. That's better than Xanax and hobbies.
Dems have gotten ridiculous to the point that I can barely stomach to know what their next desperate outrage is. Dems drowning in their own vomit, and only kept on life support by the MSM propaganda media. To which I say again, 'Its the media stupid'.....the media is our bigger enemy. Dems totally disappear without MSM air cover.
Dems are the biggest reason why we need sanitariums back. The far left are really just lunatics who need to be removed from society, and committed for their own safety, and ours as well.
For if they continue to sit in offices for the people, then they will destroy everything good the people have and do. Like a festering wound that’s so eaten up with their hatred and negativity, I don’t believe they should be allowed in public places, let alone a public office. Communists against all rational western thought, and yes, they are a group that is the enemy of democracy itself. Funny, the far left have no clue what democracy means. We are a republic, one nation under God. The far left have no right to hold America hostage while they try to blackmail us into giving them money for something against our civil rights. Time to make changes in the rules, and take these commie losers out of power.
Indeed, thank you CatC. JudeoChristian Biblical principles lierally created the foundation for the 'civilization' that we live in, that leftists so love, yet ironically, they've no idea how we got here.
Imagine (yes imagine, JohnLennon), what our world wud be today without EVER having the blessings of Biblical standards. I dont wanna live in that world.
Taking flags and pledge of allegiance out of classrooms paid for by us the taxpayers, the people, for what purpose?? I am offended by that act, and wonder who thought it was acceptable to remove our flag?? Traitors don’t belong in our country. We should never change our values for anyone, ever.
China, Japan, and Poland don’t let anyone try to change their culture. They have the right idea, and we should too.
If you were a subversive trying to make Republicans look bad while pretending to be a supporter, I can't think of how your behavior would be any different.
If you're hoping someone gets stomped, then a good substitute for a time machine would be some testicles so you could just do the job yourself and dispense with the hypothetical chest-beating.
Let's see...retreats into profanity, barely a nod toward punctuation, imperfect grasp of sentence structure, answers every response, syntax matches.....
To quote Blair White (the transsexual who does NOT have a professorship at Harvard): "They call you a Nazi not because you are a Nazi; they call you a Nazi so they can kill you."
Yes, it's a mark of their weird respect for someone who is more competent & successful & garners more votes than them, so all they can do is tear down 'these Nazis'. This shouldn't surprise us. Dems were the 'party of slavery', then they fell back to the 'party of segregation', then it was the 'party of free love', then the 'party of refugees' fighting to be free. And so on. In truth though its the party of fakery & atheism & criminality & hate.
Ten years of being labeled a nazi lover by close relatives has been exhausting. They’ll never stop. They’ve been brainwashed into equating republicans with evil and no matter how many wars trump stops it’s a weapon they’ll hold on to, to, you know, save democracy.
Yes, we are all exhausted by their stupidity. Apparently these people were never taught that words matter.
In Illinois we have to put up with Pritzker egging all the crazies on. This obese trust baby needs to keep his big mouth shut instead of inciting people to violence. So sad that he will do anything to hold onto (or gain) power. In the meantime residents actually suffer with progressive programs being enacted, gang violence, property taxes being raised, kids not learning to read, and the abysmal job creation in Illinois.
Sasha, your narration sounded almost like you were about to giggle for the whole episode. Like it was an effort to keep a straight face in light of the abject nonsense the dems spouted in each video. I busted up a few times as their performative shock and extended histrionics is getting threadbare and shopworn after 10 years on daily repeat. How can anyone take them seriously any more? Sasha, You are the best.
Let’s get this straight, as an ongoing student of Military History- particularly of the Second World War & the events that led up to it - the pejorative “Nazi!” Is an acronym for the German word “nationalsozialist” meaning of course “National Socialist”. National Socialism was the platform of the “nationalsozialistdeutschearbeiterpartei” or “National Socialist German Worker’s Party. Adolf Hitler did not found the party but he took it over. National Socialism & Communism have been/will always be two sides of the same coin; both are based in Marxism & differ only by degrees. Under Communism, The State owns & controls means of production & distribution. Under Fascism (National Socialism) The State nominally leaves control of means of production in private hands yet dictates the outcome. This is why Fascism is often referred to as “Corporatism “ because big corporations get in bed with the govt & do its bidding. Under neither are there any private property rights not individual rights. As Fascism founder Benito Mussolini stated, “Everything within The State, nothing outside The State, nothing against The State.” He also referred to Fascism as “the melding of corporate & political power.”
Unfortunately few seem to know this anymore; the words “Nazi!” & “Fascist!” have become merely a smear for anyone who disagrees with the leftist platform. The irony inherent is that both Communism & Fascism are found on the left, not the right.
It’s utterly ridiculous but it’s now official: EVERYONE IN THE FUTURE WILL BE “HITLER!” OR A “NAZI!” FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES!!! The whole thing anymore is just a sick joke; there’s no debate about policies or programs it’s just name calling now 24/7. Hurling epithets isn’t a platform. And to your point about “everyone not a communist is now a fascist” is precisely how the Soviets reacted with the advent of Operation Barbarossa on June 22, 1941; allied with Nazi Germany up to that point by the von Ribbentrop/Molotov Pact they were completely caught with their pants down when Germany invaded the Soviet Union. Suddenly everything & everyone not Soviet was a “fascist”. They even leveled that charge at the U.S. & Britain to a point but then toned it down because they were badly in need of the supplies being sent. After the war, they reverted to form.
And no honest discussion about the Second World War can take place until a fundamental question is answered: if it was wrong & anathema that Germany attacked Poland Sept 1, 1939 why is it swept under the rug/glossed over that the Soviet Union invaded Poland 15 days later?
Moreover the Soviet Union attacked Finland in November 1939 leading to “The Winter War” which saw a disastrous performance of The Red Army & about half a million casualties.
Where was Britain & France’s declaration of war against the Soviet Union for the egregious violations of national sovereignty & border integrity of - not only Poland & Finland - but the Baltic countries of Latvia, Lithuania, & Estonia which Stalin bullied into submission & occupied outright?
The double standards are mind-blowing. My point is here one really has to look outside the box & connect the dots to search out the actual truth.
Very well stated. There is a difference between "corporatism" and "fascism". Corporatism is the union (voluntary) of private enterprise with government for monetary gain. Fascism is the conscription (non-voluntary) of private enterprise into the service of an authoritarian government, ostensibly for the purpose of national security. That is the only distinguishing characteristic that separates "fascism" from the other collectivist ideologies.
That word has been watered down to the point of truly offending every survivor of Hitler and families of survivors. It's a disgrace. It has no meaning anymore.
I was at a music festival in Boulder on Saturday when the No Kings people were marching around. One small elderly Jewish man walked by with a red Trump hat and told us he was trolling the marchers. He was offended that they used the word Nazi to describe Trump, an affront to the victims of the Holocaust. He said he had gotten death threats, but this small man had no fear, only determination to be seen.
Yes. The NAZI problem of the Democrats is that they ARE the NAZIs. If NAZI is defined as totalitarian "Socialist" party that has zero tolerance for those other than their own tribe (in this case anti-American uber-liberals) and wants to eliminate those who are different, then yes, that describes exactly the not-so "Democrats" today
I wish you could have been sitting with me and my friends in an ice cream shop in Boulder, Colorado on Saturday, reading the ridiculous signs of the passing No Kings protesters. It was really amusing. They need to find some new adjectives and nouns to call him. The fascist, pedophile, Nazi ones are getting old. Maybe a return to "orange man bad"?
Satanist, communists, Stalinist, Maoists, Murderers, pedophiles, Libotards, DemoRAT the list is amazing and yet they are as much a snowflake as the Democrats they claim they are.
Nazis were socialists. Antifa were communists. They hated each other and expressed their hatred with unbound violence. There has always been a struggle for control among the sects of the socialist spectrum.
They fill the socialist spectrum from Marxist to fascism. All are collectivist ideologies that place the demand of the state ahead of the right of the individual. But not all Democrats are socialists. JFK/LBJ Democrats were fiercely anti-communist/socialist/fascist and proudly republican (small 'r') capitalists. Doesn't seem like there are many of them left, but they're there. They have to keep their heads down so that the extremists in their party don't bite their heads off. See Bari Weiss, JFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Dean Phillips, Uri Berliner, etc. about what happens if you don't bend the knee, raise the fist, and repeat the words.
Leftist projection of the National Socialist slur is over 100 years old.
The Ναζις were leftists, there are more than 50 common traits between them and the left.
From the fact that they were fans of FDR and the new deal:
New York Times Nov. 8, 1936
Paradoxically As It May Sound, The Overwhelming Election Victory Of President Roosevelt Has Furnished The National Socialist Régime In Germany With The Biggest Boost It Has Had For A Long Time.
Hitler; The Chief Aim Of His Régime Was Social Reconstruction, And Recounting What National Socialism Had Done For Labor, He Admitted Not Been Able To Achieve Social Justice
Great article! It inspired me to share on blue sky so I had to create an account. Started scrolling and omg....they are like a pack of paranoid schizophrenics! Wow!
Its Biblical in several places, such as II COR 4:3-4. The worship of false gods (money, pleasure, self, power} and forsaking or even denouncing the one true God, they are then left to the deception of the god of this world, Satan, and are no longer able to discern truth from the lie. Its a downward spiral from there....overcome with fear because of the lies they have believed. Unrepentant sinners they are...
"Then again, is there anything they wouldn’t believe?"
Yes. They (pretend) the gov't isn't shut down by Schumer.
As a side note, Nancy Pelosi is going to make an announcement in November after our redistricting election. I'm 99% positive she is going to retire and I'm sure I know who her replacement will be. It's a Chinese woman she has been courting.
When the whole Elon about and the alleged Nazi salute was claimed, I spent hours looking for Senators and others, including Warren & Hillary, with that same "salute" and found them. I began mocking Dems online (X) by posting the photos and wrote, "I found another Nazi." It didn't stop them, but it did cause enough people to pause their rhetoric.
As we know, there is nothing Dems hate more than to be mocked. If I am mocked, I play off of it and it's no big deal. As my mom used to say (when I got scared or worried), "They can't EAT you." 🤣🤣🤣
The Democrats don’t have a Nazi problem. They are a Nazi problem.

They use this language as swear words. It’s their way of swearing.
They are not serious people and we don’t have to take them seriously. Trump is right: Just laugh at them with memes.
Its actually Biblical. Proverbs 26:5. 'Answer a fool according to his own folly, lest he be wise in his own eyes'.
Or as we say simply, 'Answer folly with folly'.
But then there’s the OPPOSITE proverb nearby: DON’T answer a fool according to his folly.
By which I understand: There’s no winning with fools!
So laugh it off.
Oh fuck the bible.
Lots of the good in Western culture and the foundations of the USA are based on principles in the Bible.
Indeed, thank you CatC. JudeoChristian Biblical principles lierally created the foundation for the 'civilization' that we live in, that leftists so love, yet ironically, they've no idea how we got here.
Imagine (yes imagine, JohnLennon), what our world wud be today without EVER having the blessings of Biblical standards. I dont wanna live in that world.
Taking flags and pledge of allegiance out of classrooms paid for by us the taxpayers, the people, for what purpose?? I am offended by that act, and wonder who thought it was acceptable to remove our flag?? Traitors don’t belong in our country. We should never change our values for anyone, ever.
China, Japan, and Poland don’t let anyone try to change their culture. They have the right idea, and we should too.
I think at this point it's fair to just outright laugh in their faces!
It has been "at that point" since the Clinton administration... Which was the last time the commie bastards won an election without fraud.
It's okay to point and stare.
If you were a subversive trying to make Republicans look bad while pretending to be a supporter, I can't think of how your behavior would be any different.
He does seem to have a demented "Colbert Report" thing going.
If you're hoping someone gets stomped, then a good substitute for a time machine would be some testicles so you could just do the job yourself and dispense with the hypothetical chest-beating.
Let's see...retreats into profanity, barely a nod toward punctuation, imperfect grasp of sentence structure, answers every response, syntax matches.....
HL3, stop with the multi-account nonsense.
To quote Blair White (the transsexual who does NOT have a professorship at Harvard): "They call you a Nazi not because you are a Nazi; they call you a Nazi so they can kill you."
Yes, it's a mark of their weird respect for someone who is more competent & successful & garners more votes than them, so all they can do is tear down 'these Nazis'. This shouldn't surprise us. Dems were the 'party of slavery', then they fell back to the 'party of segregation', then it was the 'party of free love', then the 'party of refugees' fighting to be free. And so on. In truth though its the party of fakery & atheism & criminality & hate.
Exactly!!
Ten years of being labeled a nazi lover by close relatives has been exhausting. They’ll never stop. They’ve been brainwashed into equating republicans with evil and no matter how many wars trump stops it’s a weapon they’ll hold on to, to, you know, save democracy.
Yes, we are all exhausted by their stupidity. Apparently these people were never taught that words matter.
In Illinois we have to put up with Pritzker egging all the crazies on. This obese trust baby needs to keep his big mouth shut instead of inciting people to violence. So sad that he will do anything to hold onto (or gain) power. In the meantime residents actually suffer with progressive programs being enacted, gang violence, property taxes being raised, kids not learning to read, and the abysmal job creation in Illinois.
Sasha, your narration sounded almost like you were about to giggle for the whole episode. Like it was an effort to keep a straight face in light of the abject nonsense the dems spouted in each video. I busted up a few times as their performative shock and extended histrionics is getting threadbare and shopworn after 10 years on daily repeat. How can anyone take them seriously any more? Sasha, You are the best.
Exactly, Kurt!
Let’s get this straight, as an ongoing student of Military History- particularly of the Second World War & the events that led up to it - the pejorative “Nazi!” Is an acronym for the German word “nationalsozialist” meaning of course “National Socialist”. National Socialism was the platform of the “nationalsozialistdeutschearbeiterpartei” or “National Socialist German Worker’s Party. Adolf Hitler did not found the party but he took it over. National Socialism & Communism have been/will always be two sides of the same coin; both are based in Marxism & differ only by degrees. Under Communism, The State owns & controls means of production & distribution. Under Fascism (National Socialism) The State nominally leaves control of means of production in private hands yet dictates the outcome. This is why Fascism is often referred to as “Corporatism “ because big corporations get in bed with the govt & do its bidding. Under neither are there any private property rights not individual rights. As Fascism founder Benito Mussolini stated, “Everything within The State, nothing outside The State, nothing against The State.” He also referred to Fascism as “the melding of corporate & political power.”
Unfortunately few seem to know this anymore; the words “Nazi!” & “Fascist!” have become merely a smear for anyone who disagrees with the leftist platform. The irony inherent is that both Communism & Fascism are found on the left, not the right.
They now call capitalism fascism.
So they claim, mostly, not to support communism, but everyone, everyone not a communist is now a fascist.
Because we stand between them and power.
It’s utterly ridiculous but it’s now official: EVERYONE IN THE FUTURE WILL BE “HITLER!” OR A “NAZI!” FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES!!! The whole thing anymore is just a sick joke; there’s no debate about policies or programs it’s just name calling now 24/7. Hurling epithets isn’t a platform. And to your point about “everyone not a communist is now a fascist” is precisely how the Soviets reacted with the advent of Operation Barbarossa on June 22, 1941; allied with Nazi Germany up to that point by the von Ribbentrop/Molotov Pact they were completely caught with their pants down when Germany invaded the Soviet Union. Suddenly everything & everyone not Soviet was a “fascist”. They even leveled that charge at the U.S. & Britain to a point but then toned it down because they were badly in need of the supplies being sent. After the war, they reverted to form.
And no honest discussion about the Second World War can take place until a fundamental question is answered: if it was wrong & anathema that Germany attacked Poland Sept 1, 1939 why is it swept under the rug/glossed over that the Soviet Union invaded Poland 15 days later?
Moreover the Soviet Union attacked Finland in November 1939 leading to “The Winter War” which saw a disastrous performance of The Red Army & about half a million casualties.
Where was Britain & France’s declaration of war against the Soviet Union for the egregious violations of national sovereignty & border integrity of - not only Poland & Finland - but the Baltic countries of Latvia, Lithuania, & Estonia which Stalin bullied into submission & occupied outright?
The double standards are mind-blowing. My point is here one really has to look outside the box & connect the dots to search out the actual truth.
Very well stated. There is a difference between "corporatism" and "fascism". Corporatism is the union (voluntary) of private enterprise with government for monetary gain. Fascism is the conscription (non-voluntary) of private enterprise into the service of an authoritarian government, ostensibly for the purpose of national security. That is the only distinguishing characteristic that separates "fascism" from the other collectivist ideologies.
That word has been watered down to the point of truly offending every survivor of Hitler and families of survivors. It's a disgrace. It has no meaning anymore.
I was at a music festival in Boulder on Saturday when the No Kings people were marching around. One small elderly Jewish man walked by with a red Trump hat and told us he was trolling the marchers. He was offended that they used the word Nazi to describe Trump, an affront to the victims of the Holocaust. He said he had gotten death threats, but this small man had no fear, only determination to be seen.
Democrats are running a candidate who has openly called for the killing of a Republican and his young children while their mother is forced to watch.
The #1 Dem politician in the country refuses to condemn the globalization of the Intifada.
Tens of thousands of Democrats celebrated the murder of Charlie Kirk.
Yes. The NAZI problem of the Democrats is that they ARE the NAZIs. If NAZI is defined as totalitarian "Socialist" party that has zero tolerance for those other than their own tribe (in this case anti-American uber-liberals) and wants to eliminate those who are different, then yes, that describes exactly the not-so "Democrats" today
If this tattoo was found on Don Jr, the Democrats would demand the impeachment and incarceration of Don Sr.
I wish you could have been sitting with me and my friends in an ice cream shop in Boulder, Colorado on Saturday, reading the ridiculous signs of the passing No Kings protesters. It was really amusing. They need to find some new adjectives and nouns to call him. The fascist, pedophile, Nazi ones are getting old. Maybe a return to "orange man bad"?
Why change its not like GOP havent stopped name calling Democrats
I have no idea what you mean. Libtards?
Satanist, communists, Stalinist, Maoists, Murderers, pedophiles, Libotards, DemoRAT the list is amazing and yet they are as much a snowflake as the Democrats they claim they are.
You forgot baby killers.
Deplorables
Every name yet they are ones who demand Democrats to stop calling MAGA bad names.
Ok Brandon
You used the same, pathetic statement yesterday, moron. The thing is, you define the word FOOL. You should be embarrassed.
fu
All maga & those who vote maga are Nazis, replaced all of them are racist. They have a list to get through.
First we had TDS. Now we have BDS. Ballroom Derangement Syndrome.
Nazis were socialists. Antifa were communists. They hated each other and expressed their hatred with unbound violence. There has always been a struggle for control among the sects of the socialist spectrum.
I think Democrats are more communist than socialists.
They fill the socialist spectrum from Marxist to fascism. All are collectivist ideologies that place the demand of the state ahead of the right of the individual. But not all Democrats are socialists. JFK/LBJ Democrats were fiercely anti-communist/socialist/fascist and proudly republican (small 'r') capitalists. Doesn't seem like there are many of them left, but they're there. They have to keep their heads down so that the extremists in their party don't bite their heads off. See Bari Weiss, JFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Dean Phillips, Uri Berliner, etc. about what happens if you don't bend the knee, raise the fist, and repeat the words.
Leftist projection of the National Socialist slur is over 100 years old.
The Ναζις were leftists, there are more than 50 common traits between them and the left.
From the fact that they were fans of FDR and the new deal:

Great article! It inspired me to share on blue sky so I had to create an account. Started scrolling and omg....they are like a pack of paranoid schizophrenics! Wow!
Its Biblical in several places, such as II COR 4:3-4. The worship of false gods (money, pleasure, self, power} and forsaking or even denouncing the one true God, they are then left to the deception of the god of this world, Satan, and are no longer able to discern truth from the lie. Its a downward spiral from there....overcome with fear because of the lies they have believed. Unrepentant sinners they are...
The one time I visited Bluesky, there were a lot of posts about clouds. And cats. They really seem to like cats.
"Then again, is there anything they wouldn’t believe?"
Yes. They (pretend) the gov't isn't shut down by Schumer.
As a side note, Nancy Pelosi is going to make an announcement in November after our redistricting election. I'm 99% positive she is going to retire and I'm sure I know who her replacement will be. It's a Chinese woman she has been courting.
When the whole Elon about and the alleged Nazi salute was claimed, I spent hours looking for Senators and others, including Warren & Hillary, with that same "salute" and found them. I began mocking Dems online (X) by posting the photos and wrote, "I found another Nazi." It didn't stop them, but it did cause enough people to pause their rhetoric.
As we know, there is nothing Dems hate more than to be mocked. If I am mocked, I play off of it and it's no big deal. As my mom used to say (when I got scared or worried), "They can't EAT you." 🤣🤣🤣
